You plan to move to the Philippines? Wollen Sie auf den Philippinen leben?

There are REALLY TONS of websites telling us how, why, maybe why not and when you'll be able to move to the Philippines. I only love to tell and explain some things "between the lines". Enjoy reading, be informed, have fun and be entertained too!

Ja, es gibt tonnenweise Webseiten, die Ihnen sagen wie, warum, vielleicht warum nicht und wann Sie am besten auf die Philippinen auswandern könnten. Ich möchte Ihnen in Zukunft "zwischen den Zeilen" einige zusätzlichen Dinge berichten und erzählen. Viel Spass beim Lesen und Gute Unterhaltung!

Boon or Bane? FACEBOOK!

Boon or bane? I am in Facebook since several years. Today's headline "Paolo cries IMPOSTOR" in Mindanao Daily Mirror (my home daily!) shocked me and many other Facebook joiners too.

A "mystery girl charges expenses from her fake Facebook account"... .
Councilor and friend Paolo Duterte has warned business owners and Facebook users from acknowledging "another" Paolo Duterte, who has apparently conducted extortion activities via food orders.

"I have never interacted in the social networking site, because I don't have any," the councilor said. Sad to say, there is one.  And I am still in "this friend list" in FACEBOOK.

This marks the first time a city officer has been victimized by cyber crime. Honestly, it's not easy for me to 'keep my Facebook account clean"... .
